Just delicious! |
This week’s French Fridays with Dorie challenge is for Quiche Maraichère which is essentially a Farmers’ Market-inspired dish filled with vegetables and custard, topped with cheese. I made a couple of changes to Dorie’s recipe – I swapped out Asparagus for Red Peppers (because I can’t eat them), and I added a little bit of fresh dill to the custard.

Freshly grated Fontina for the top! |
One bite of this quiche will take you right back to Les Deux Magots! It is that good and that fresh. This quiche will make repeat appearance in our kitchen.

Yummy fresh vegetables! |
This quiche is as delicious as it is easy to make! It was absolutely perfect with a salad for a weeknight dinner. We think it would also be great with chicken or shrimp added into the mix.
Ohhh, those pictures, Susan. Beautiful. I forgot that I also threw in some leftover asparagus. Channeling SL. My goodness, I didn’t even write that up in my Post. Need to do a PS – Mary goes creative. I liked the less is more approach to the filling and agree that shrimp or crabmeat or even chicken would make a good and more meal-hardy addition. Thanks for those suggestions.
That looks delicious! Bet it was wonderful with asparagus and dill – so Spring-ish 🙂
I really love how versatile this quiche is… you really can change around vegetables and cheese to keep the concept fresh.
I resisted all urges to make subs on this one for some reason but even as i did so I knew it would be even better with fresher veggies like asparagus. And real fontina is a delight, isn’t it? I bet this was great!
Looks wonderful Susan! I love the addition of asparagus and dill…delicious! Have a good weekend!
I love asparagus, great addition.
This quiche would be perfect for spring, love the asparagus and fresh dill!
I’d love to add asparagus to my next one! And yours looks so thick…yum!!!
Asparagus sounds like a great substitution. Yesterday was the official start to asparagus season here in Germany (I’m not making that up, they have an official start day) but it’s been in the markets for a few weeks now and we’ve been eating it like mad.
I love that so many of you (Doristas) make changes in the recipes. Is that part of the plan? It should be!! ~ David
Susan! I loved this, and love that you helped me find my new camera that I am still learning how to use.. Will you be in Palm Springs area anytime this year?
Can’t go wrong when cheese is involved! Lovely, Susan! Those veggies look great!
Susan, I can see that you are an asparagus lover as well – your version of Dorie´s quiche looks fabulous!
Whishing you a lovely Sunday!
Asparagus! I like the extra color this brought to your quiche (and I am sure it tasted great too). Fontina is never a bad idea, either 🙂
Love the addition of asparagus…your quiche looks fantastic! This one was a hit with both Bill and me! Have a great week, Susan!
Just lovely with asparagus too! So gonna make more quiches from our book!
I love it that you used asparagus! Not that is back in season I think it will be a permanent inhabitant in my kitchen. The quiche photographs is making drool ha ha
Beautiful pics. Great idea to add the asparagus. Have to try that next time. Loved this one.
Lovely photos! This would be good with any of those additions, I agree, but I was so pleased with how delicious it was as written, too.
